There Was An Attempt

Honestly, I don't believe its fair to say "all you can eat" unless its true. Otherwise, you should put some type of detailed limit.

Elon Musk has tried to re-brand PayPal as "X" years ago and was shot down due to focus groups stating it reminded them of adult websites.

Or is it just me who finds the concept of 'mystery flavor clear liquid' very unappealing?

...and it worked.

Just claim you're a bounty hunter and you can do whatever you want.

Compilation of failed attempts.

This community was abandoned by the previous mods, we're in need of more mods and added content. I've been trying to keep it alive. If your interested comment below that your interested. Even if your not interested in a mod position, anybody is able to post "There was an attempt" content for the community to enjoy.

Squirrel attempts to fake injury/death with a broom. Failed as it was caught on video, nice try.

An attempt was made to get people to come, I believe there was some miscommunication.

1527: A 600-man Spanish expedition tried to colonize Florida, loses its ships, finds no gold, and gets routed by natives. Four survivors are left wandering naked.

Interesting but potentially dangerous tactic, ultimately failed the attempt.

This did not help the situation, imo I don't believe they would actually be considered "less scary". But if they worked, they worked?

Seriously, what's the error rate on these things anyways. It's pretty outrageous these days.

Robert Liston performed the only operation with a 300% mortality rate; His patient, his assistant and a spectator died. I'm questioning if it was attempted though, it kinda seems like you'd have to try to kill all three...

Last year, University of Maryland surgeons made history by transplanting a gene-edited pig heart into a dying man who was out of other options. He survived only two months before the organ failed for reasons that aren't fully understood but that offer lessons for future attempts. Now, the Food and Drug Administration is considering whether to allow some small but rigorous studies of pig heart or kidney transplants in volunteer patients.

For years now Verizon has been locking bootloaders preventing custom ROMs from being used, most commonly the Google Pixel where if purchased from Google it's unlocked but from a carrier (Verizon especially) it's been labeled impossible. Over 3yrs later and the attempt is still a failure.

It's hard to remember all the technology that just didn't make it, it's kind of a great flash back.

An oil change was attempted, if it wasn't for the coolant reservoir being yellow (Which is, of course, the universal color for oil)...

The insurrection is over.
